Omega Centauri 2013

Beautiful weather conditions continue in Perth.
For the last two evenings, between 11pm and 0am, I collected 30 subs x 3min, 15 subs each day.

Cam: 60Da
Scope: CPC925 (hd-wedge) with f6.3 reducer, guided + 25kg bag of river stones on the bottom of the tripod

Processed in PixInsight and final "touch" LTR4

Superb Ian. I love those coppery coloured stars.

All of a sudden there are a couple of DSLR gems!

Greg.

Nice one Ian.
Focus and resolution look spot on and those star colours are fantastic.

Clear skies

Well, stones make the tripod more stable and help to attenuate the micro-vibrations - much better than the useless anti-vibration pads ...
